Cobra Rattler

I've pimped the Commander's Rattler.

This would look really cool with the skull and crossbones.
Love this aircraft though, one of my favourites as a kid, always seemed to have more destructive power
than the Skysriker.

When I customised my Skystriker for the Shads, a couple of people made the very good point that Red Shadow vehicles are all fantasy-based, so personally this would have to either be a SAS or Z Force custom. It's more in keeping with Z (Heavy Armour) but would look bitching in black.

Then again, they rereleased this as an A10 Tankbuster in green and black.
I really like this colour scheme, put some Z Force stickers on and your away!!!

Oh hell yeah! That pic says prototype, was it actually released?

[scoobydie]

Oh yes!!

I`ve tried searching but to no avail on teebay , might as well do it myself.
Baron, you could repaint the damaged one from Mowerman.
I think I have the remains of the wheels here for it if you want them to glue back on?

[The Baron]

I'm afraid it went in the bin, I ruined the wings getting the missiles off. Bastard Mowerman.

This just caught my eye, does anybody know what the original toy was?

I was just looking at that!
No idea what the base model is, looks a lot like the original Tankbuster though.

Yeah, totally agree with what you say about the enemy fantasy-vehicle angle, but for me, the fact that its Cobra-blue, like the A.S.P. and the enemy figures, meant it had to stay Cobra in my eyes.


That said, I'd LOVE to see one in Enemy Red or Z Force green!

The Scorponok scene with the Warthogs in completely kicks ass.
